Our ward did something different for the
Christmas celebration this year. Instead
of the traditional dinner that is normally done, we had a Christmas
breakfast. And the Relief Society wasn’t
in charge of fixing any of it. It was
catered!
Last year, we had it in the Skyhawk
room in Myrtle Creek – which seems to be a popular spot for annual events – and
not just the cafeteria between the elementary and middle schools. But this we had our breakfast at the Bible
Christian Center in Riddle. The inside
of the facility definitely seems a lot bigger than the outside. I was impressed.
We had the option of scrambled eggs,
hash browns, sausage patties, muffins, fruit, and in addition to the drink
choices of milk, cran-raspberry juice, orange juice or hot cider. I used a thick raspberry syrup for my
pancakes and it was delicious.
After an hour, the adults sang 7
different Christmas hymns while the primary went into another room to prepare for
the program that was to follow. Ten,
including Jenna (who is not really in primary anymore) returned, dressed as
angels. Hayden was the only boy dressed
as an angel. The other two were dressed
to represent Nephi and Samuel, the Lamanite.
The other two girls in primary wore their Church clothes and acted as
the narrators.
Jenna and I both sat at chairs that
had stickers beneath. Our sticker
entitled us to take home a star to hang on our tree.
